Simply create a huge text box with a large font and a very light grey color in it's own Detail section then in section expert mark the detail section right before it as Underlay
folloWing section
Then you can conditionally supress that text box
That's how the POform.rpt is done with Changed Order" go take a look

One idea would be to use a tool like this:

http://www.a-pdf.com/watermark/index.htm

It has a command-line tool, so you could either integrate this at the
time of attachment via a BAM, watching XFileAttach, with a 4GL program.
Basically you'd just call this from your custom code to stamp the file
that's been attached in Vantage. You could presumably do some filtering
on the BAM based on your needs.

Many modern print drivers allow you to add a watermark at the printing
stage. You could create a new printer with the "Controlled Copy"
watermark turned on and then use that printer for controlled
documents. The con: you can't make people to use that printer...

Simply create a huge text box with a large font and a very light grey color in it's own Detail section then in section expert mark the detail section right before it as Underlay
folloWing section
Then you can conditionally supress that text box
That's how the POform.rpt is done with Changed Order" go take a look

Are you suggesting this to be done in Crystal Reports or in A-PDF
Watermark utility?
